Bits & Pieces Day
An early morning short hike and mid-morning moose hunt drive (two spotted) gas fill up, coffee at Three Bears and we were off to Talkeetna about 130 miles south. We did stop to see the Alaska Veteran’s Monument. Touching. After a quick stop for a birch ice cream we arrived at the campground and set up. We explored the town looking at some of the historic buildings and cabins built by trappers in the 1930’s but saved the museum for the next day. We ate dinner at Twister Creek. A bit of gift shop looking and then we settled in for the night.
Cadillac’s Most Correct Viewpoint
Marsh grazing with Ms McKinley was the highlight of my life. Wow. She is so special. And wonderful. And smart. And beautiful. And clever. We are leaving today because of the critical need to complete work on my presidential planning but it is so hard to leave her. She but a brave front but I expect she is crushed. The good news is that I will write to her and that we are coming back. I am just a twitter with plans and thoughts but I need to concentrate. I’ll grab a latte myself, since my Chief of Latte Acquisition has not been filled. Meanwhile the circus continues with the salute teaching. Egad, this is awful.

TWO DAYS of training on saluting and this is what I get. You just can’t teach a caribou.
